Oh, right, this happens before execing imap. Hmm. Well, mail_drop_priv_before_exec=yes probably helps you. I'll have to figure out if I should change something here..
Just FYI, the problem remains after turning the mail_drop_priv_before_exec=yes flag on.
Right, I looked at the code wrong. I think I won't change this in v1.x because it might break something, but you could move
ret = chdir(full_home_dir);in src/master/mail-process.c just before:
client_process_exec(set->mail_executable, title);and then it should work with mail_drop_priv_before_exec=yes. I'll get this fixed properly in v2.0.
